DMCA Policy

DMCA Policy

Black Frosting respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable laws, we have adopted a policy of responding to notices of alleged infringement that are in compliance with the DMCA and other applicable laws.

This policy describes the information that should be present in a DMCA notice of alleged infringement and how we will respond. If Black Frosting receives a valid DMCA notice, it is our policy to remove or disable access to the infringing material and to make a good faith effort to contact the user who posted the material so that they may make a counter-notification.

Filing a DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible via the Black Frosting website, please provide our Copyright Agent with the following information in writing (see 17 U.S.C. Section 512(c)(3) for further detail):

  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site.
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Black Frosting to locate the material (e.g., URL(s)).
